The pillar in the middle of Laying the Foundation room is actually a path to a semi-secret room with... a formula.

I've been to that room a number of times, but I cannot get there... consistently. When I WANT to get inside, it seems the small flying balls just don't open up the wall in a way to allow entry, making me run like a maniac for quite some time before, finally, a passage presents itself... then I usually botch the jump, it closes and I start the whole darn thing over.

Don't keep moving once you've already broken a lot of the cube. Let it
regenerate, and try again. If you keep moving, it'll regenerate too
much over any area you want to move through.

I found that only one of the sides consistently made a hole big enough
to jump through. Move around, try to look for the hole, wait for the
cube to regenerate, then move to where you saw the biggest hole. Then
move around to break it open again, and usually it breaks open in a
similar pattern as before.
